Related to TH

The research of CBG and its healing potential was in the past, to the contrary to THC, unjustly ignored. In the last years, however it shows up that it has very interesting pharmaceutical effects.

CBG, or cannabigerol, is an often-overlooked cannabinoid, although it is extremely important. In fact, it is the needed source for causing most of the effects of hemp. It acts as a precursor to CBD, THC and some other cannabinoids. As the plant grows, CBG is converted to other cannabinoids by enzymes in the plant, so it tends to be present in low levels when the hemp is ready for harvest.

Cannabigerol (CBG) is not psychoactive and is known to block metabolic activity, the psychoactive effects of THC. CBG has been shown to stimulate neurogenesis (brain cell growth). CBG is also antibacterial, anticancer and helps in insomnia.
